Orange Lilies

Hello there, We have these gorgeous orange lilies blooming everywhere right now, all along the road growing wild. I have always called them Tiger Lilies, not sure if that is correct but I think my mother called them that, so it must be right, lol. I recently purchased some new products to play with, the first is Liquitex Pouring Medium. You mix the pouring medium with fluid acrylic to tint it and I poured them on a canvas and tilted the canvas every which way. I ended up with a colorful glossy abstract painting, fun. I also purchased Golden Fluid acrylics, started with the primary colors. I am playing around with those also, they are thin but have a lot of pigment in them. I painted this with the Golden Fluid acrylics, 8" x 10" stretched canvas. I never get tired of trying new things. Good to see you, have a wonderful day.
